Good, better, Best

Never let it rest

‘Till the good is better

and the better best.

My Aunt always said this to her own children and me when we were little kids. I have always thought it carried a good message, but I rarely use it around anyone except family. I like the way it advocates active improvement. I think it is very true that if you aren’t actively improving, then you are worsening yourself.  I think this is something I might one day say to my children. The poem conveys are hardworking attitude that is a benefit to anyone.
